Ludeon Studios has released RimWorld: Odyssey, a massive new expansion for the sci-fi colony sim. This releases alongside a free 1.6 update that is also available to those who only own the base game.
Odyssey marks the sixth major expansion for RimWorld and includes a focus on exploration. Players will be able to build their own gravship to travel across the planet and explore new biomes, including the glowforest, the scarlands, the glacial plains, and the lava fields. These new biomes also introduces new landmarks, such as cliffs, fjords, and ancient structures where you can find more resources.
The gravship can also take you out of your planet and into space, where there are wrecked orbital platforms, derelict satellites and asteroids to explore and acquire more resources from, though you can expect some dangerous competition from space scavengers and killer mechanoids. You’ll also need to ensure your gravship is prepared against the harsh conditions of space, from maintaining power to oxygen pumps to building airlocks to prevent deppressurization.
